Setting Up and Testing the MAX Hardware
Warning:
Before installing the MAX 3000, be sure to read the safety instructions in the
Access Networks Safety and Compliance Guide. This hardware installation guide provides
information specific to your product in Appendix D, “Safety-Related Electrical, Physical, and
Environmental Information.”
The MAX package contains hardware and software items you can use to set up your MAX
unit. You need to evaluate the network connections you require, which items you need, and
where to place your MAX. Then you can insert expansion cards and connect the unit to the
network.
Planning the hardware installation
Before you begin installation of the MAX hardware, make sure that you have the items you
need.
What you need before you start
Before you install the MAX, make sure that you have the following items:
•
A suitable location in which to install the MAX hardware.
•
An active T1 or E1 line set for bidirectional calling, if applicable. (Bidirectional calling
allows you to test the MAX hardware by having the MAX dial out on one channel and
answer on another channel.)
